This user guide applies to both single
and multiple handset systems. The
internal call functions described in
this guide apply only to Synergy 3500
base stations with more than one
handset connected.

Important
If you wear a hearing aid, please
note that the Synergy 3500 works
by sending radio signals between the
base station and the handset. These
signals may interfere with some
hearing aids, causing a humming
noise.

settings of the answering machine, see
page 16, and the message counter will
be displayed.

Note
The message counter will flash
between O and C until the day and
time are set, see page 15.

Do not place your Synergy 3500 product
in the bathroom or other humid areas.
SETTING UP

Note
The Synergy 3500 has a range of up
to 300 metres outdoors and up to
50 metres indoors. The range will be
reduced when there is no clear line
of sight between the base and handset.
Thick stone walls can severely affect
the range.

the base

Plug the power adaptor into the mains
power socket and switch on. The green
Power/In Use light comes on. Your
Synergy 3500 will announce the default

Note
The base station must be plugged into
the mains power socket at all times.

Install the rechargeable
batteries in the handset

Please note that the red charging light
will remain on even when the batteries
are fully charged.
BATTERY LEVELS

WEAK

SETTING UP

The handset uses two rechargeable
Nickel Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) AAA
batteries which are supplied. Take
care to insert the batteries as shown
and then fit the battery cover (the
battery cover may be found in the
packaging with the batteries).

3

Charge the handset batteries
for at least 16 hours

Before you use your Synergy 3500 for
the first time, it is important to have
the handset batteries fully charged.
The batteries need to charge
continuously for at least 16 hours
to reach full charge.
Place the handset on the base. The
red charging light will come on. The
handset comes pre-registered to the
base station as SYNERGY HS1. This is
shown on the display. The
icon and
the battery icon are shown on the
display. Once the handset is fully
charged, the display shows a full
battery symbol.

13

HALF-FULL

FULL

Battery low warning
If the handset battery symbol is empty
and flashing, and you hear a warning
beep every 10 seconds, you will need
to recharge your handset before you
can use it.

Note
The
symbol on your handset display
indicates when you are in range of
the base station. If the symbol flashes
and you hear a warning beep, you
are out of range and will need to move
closer to the base station.


Battery performance

4

Connect the telephone line
cord to the Synergy 3500
base station

5

Connect the telephone line cord

Under no circumstances should
non-rechargeable batteries be used.
Only use the approved batteries, type:
rechargeable Nickel Metal Hydride
(Ni-MH); size AAA; capacity
550mAh 1.2v. Using unapproved
batteries will invalidate your guarantee
and may damage the telephone.
To keep your batteries in the best
condition, leave the handset off the
base station for a few hours at a time.
(after the intial 16 hour charge).

Fully discharging the batteries at
least once a week will help them last
as long as possible. However, the charge
capacity of rechargeable batteries will
reduce with time as they wear out,
so reducing the talk/standby time
of the handset. Eventually they will
need to be replaced. New batteries
can be obtained from the BT Synergy
Helpline 08706 058 047.

SETTING UP

Please note, however, that new Nickel
Metal Hydride (Ni-MH) batteries
do not reach their full capacity until
they have been in normal use for
several days.

Note
It is recommended that you do not
connect the telephone line cord to the
phone socket until your handset is
fully charged. This will prevent the
risk of the batteries discharging
during a conversation, which could
cause you to lose a call.

Note: Under ideal conditions, the
handset batteries should give about
14 hours talktime or 350 hours
standby on a single charge. Optimum
times for talk and standby are only
achieved when the handset batteries
are fully charged.
